I do not divide life into watertight
compartments. The life of a nation like that of individuals is an
indivisible whole.

Harijan, 20-2-37, p. 13

For me there is no politics without
religion-not the religion of the superstitious and the blind,
religion that hates and fights, but the universal Religion of
Toleration. Politics without morality is a thing to be avoided.

Young India, 27-11-24, p. 391

For me, politics bereft of religion
are absolute dirt, ever to be shunned. Politics concern nations and
that which concerns the welfare of nations must be one of the
concerns of a man who is religiously inclined, in other words, a
seeker after God and Truth.

…Therefore, in politics also we have
to establish the Kingdom of Heaven.
